Money’s tight for everyone these days, and people need to see real value in a product or service. Professional Organizers looking to stand out in the industry know that becoming certified is one way to demonstrate knowledge and verifiable experience. Being a Certified Professional Organizer® (CPO®) instantly places an organizer in the top tier of the field. Getting certified is easy during February, when the computer-based, 2-hour CPO® exam can be scheduled at convenient testing sites throughout the United States, Canada and other countries.
“Being certified gives me additional credibility with my clients as they become more aware of our industry. Being certified enables me to differentiate myself from my peers in an ever-increasing competitive market,” says Karon van Vuuren, CPO®, Kapela Solutions.
Since the inaugural examination in 2007, the number of CPO®s in the world has grown to represent the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands and Hong Kong.
Anyone who meets the specific minimum criteria, and proves through examination and client interaction that they possess the body of knowledge and experience required for certification, can earn the designation through the Board of Certification for Professional Organizers(BCPO®)
